Warhorses for a ride, big and bold
They need no one on their side
To love and hold
Flying in the dark, heading to the sun
Leaving no mark, shooting no guns
Fathers eyes so cold
Sons doing what they're told
How could it be so short
I watch them and say
Hell, what do I know more
I could be gone in a day
I tried to save you from the burning of light
I was too late though, but you went out with
The fight
Fathers eyes so cold
Sons doing what they're told
Winters creeping in
Oh sweetest summer sin
Daughters finding love
Mothers pay the toll
Nursing of the spring
When it all ends in the fall
